ABOUT PROJECT B.O.S.S (BLACK OWNED SUCCESS STORIES)
Our focus is to amplify the impact of Black-Owned businesses.
This is done in 3 major ways:
1) Providing affordable access to businesses, marketing and branding solutions.
We have aligned with videographers, photographers and designers to knock a third off their rate for promising Black entrepreneurs. My team at Project BOSS will be matching that contribution by also covering a third of the cost. For example, a talented, Black female photographer who needs a website portfolio to be considered for top paying freelance jobs, can apply with us to receive a $1000 website at a $333 cost to her.
2) Developing & sharing free educational tools fundamental business skills.
We will host online seminars, create videos & other materials on employee management, enriched customer service and more. We need to be prepared as owners/operators and be better trainers and managers to our employees.
3) Assisting in the application process for grants and loans.
Simply put, getting the money that’s for us to us. This includes the $221 million in the upcoming Black Entrepreneurship Fund announced by Prime Minister Trudeau this year. With your help, not only will we be creating free online resources with step-by-step guides to applying for each fund made available, our team will also offer one-on-one assistance with the entire process.
